Water heater types we offer
Tankless
Tankless water heaters - also known as on-demand water heaters - are a modern solution for homeowners looking to improve energy efficiency and enjoy endless hot water. At Ridge Plumbing, we specialize in installing and servicing these systems to ensure they're the right fit for your home.
Pros:
- Endless hot water - heats water as you need it, so you never run out
- Energy efficient - Only uses energy when hot water is needed
- Space saving - Compact design, ideal for smaller homes or utility rooms
- Longer lifespan - Typically lasts longer than traditional tank models
Cons:
- Higher upfront code - Installation and unit price are typically more than standard tanks
- May require upgrades - Some homes need upgraded gas or electric lines to support
- Limited flow rate - May struggle to supple multiple fixtures at one in larger households
Not sure if a tankless is right for your home? Our licensed plumbers can walk you through the pros and cons, inspect your current setup, and recommend the best solution for your needs and budget!
Traditional
When it comes to dependable hot water, traditional tank-style water heaters remain a popular choice for many homes. At Ridge Plumbing, we offer expert installation, repair, and maintenance for both electric and gas models, helping you choose the right size and type of your household needs.

- Simple and reliable - A proven, low-maintenance solution for consistent hot water
- Easier installation - Works with most standard plumbing and utility setups
- Great for simultaneous use - Handles multiple hot water demands better in some households
Cons:
- Limited hot water supply - Once the tank empties, you must wait for it to reheat
- Higher energy use - Heats water constantly, even when you're not using it
